Three Simple Ways to Look Stunning Without Spending!

Surely we are all for splurging on a product when it's 100% worth its weight in money, but it seems these days we ladies have gotten so caught up in brand names, that we sometimes neglect to see that the pricey products are not always doing their job. Want to look stunning without overspending?

Here’s how:

Baby oil
I refuse to go on any overnight adventures without my little bottle of baby oil (I suggest tightly securing an already open bottle in some tinfoil and a plastic baggy for safe traveling!). A trick passed down from my mother, baby oil has long since served as the only eye makeup remover I need. An eye pad and a few drizzles of oil are all you need to clear off the day. It’s incredibly gentle and there is nothing else in this world that truly makes my eye area feel as clean and natural before going to bed. Believe me: I’ve tried pricier products. I have switched teams at the urge of a friend ?”You must try (insert product name here,” only to return to my faithful friend, baby oil.

Drink water
Can we get more simple (and less expensive!) than this? Water is so important and yet we still seem to forget about our good friend. While we wouldn’t dream of giving up our morning lattes, our midday smoothie, or our evening cocktails. Somewhere in the midst of all our other beverages, we tend to skip the most important one of all. Have a hard time guzzling it down because it’s, um, boring? Here’s a great solution that will keep you warm as the weather begins to turn: Heat water and add a ringlet of fresh lemon and a piece of ginger. If you want to get really cheeky, squirt in a touch of organic honey too. It’s not only a delicious way to fit water into your daily regime, but it’s also incredibly detoxing for your entire system.

Baby powder
Baby products seem to suit us adults quite well! It turns out my hair does not always cooperate. Just when I need my locks to look their best, I notice a bit too much shine, and shockingly, I just don’t have the time I need for a proper wash. The solution? A sprinkle of baby powder. Taking a small handful of baby powder and brushing it through your hair (start at the scalp) will hide the oh-too-shiny look and leave your hair looking clean and fresh (even if it isn’t. Your secret is safe with me!).
